Bio
Hello hello! Native of Los Angeles, my creative spectrum spans paintings, sculptures, video installations, drawings, and murals—a particular focus that has captivated her artistic endeavors. Painting murals offers me a means to extend my art beyond the confines of gallery walls, making it accessible to audiences from all walks of life.
Driven by an ardent desire to proliferate public art, I find immense motivation in my quest to enhance and enrich spaces with my creations. Whether seeking to beautify or introduce novel elements to an area, I understand the profound impact of public art on individuals and communities alike. I firmly believe in its ability to elicit a range of emotions—joy, wonder, thoughtfulness, and even sadness—while forging connections between people and their surroundings, as well as with each other.
For me, the act of creating art accessible to all is not merely a vocation but a labor of love. I recognize the significance of public art, regardless of whether its impact is fleeting or enduring, understanding its potential to evoke profound feelings and responses. In my view, to craft art for everyone to experience is an authentic expression of devotion to my craft and a testament to the unifying power of creativity.
